Sell your bike or scooter in West Bengal
Motorcycle, scooter or electric — list it and the buyer comes to you. No commission, no middleman, and no rider turning up to talk you down on behalf of a garage.
I am selling my own bike
Most two-wheelers here change hands between two people who live a few kilometres apart. This is that, with a page instead of a WhatsApp forward: you list it, a buyer nearby leaves their number to get yours, and you meet.
- We do not buy it off you and we do not send a valuer
- The number plate is blurred out of every photograph automatically
- Nothing is asked about a business, because you have not got one
I deal in two-wheelers
Twenty bikes is twenty WhatsApp statuses nobody scrolls to the end of. Put them on one page with a link and a QR code for the shop front, and let buyers filter to the one they want by budget and by town.
- Enquiries and test rides arrive with a name and a mobile number
- You can see which bikes people open and which ones they ask about
- No commission — the sale is between you and the buyer
Start with the make
Pick it here and the listing form opens with it already chosen. You will be asked for a name, a mobile number and a password on the way — four fields, about a minute.

How it works
A bike takes less time to list than a car, because there is less to say about it.
Make an account
Name, mobile number, town, password. The mobile number is your identity here — no email needed, because a lot of riders do not use one.
Add the bike
Make, model, year, engine size or battery, kilometres, price and where it is. Say plainly whether it is a motorcycle, a scooter or an electric, because that is the first thing a buyer filters on.
It is live as you save it
No approval queue. It shows up under its make, its budget and its town immediately, at its own address you can paste into a WhatsApp group.
Answer the enquiries
You get the buyer’s name and mobile when they ask for yours. Ring them. When it sells, mark it sold and the page stays with a Sold sticker instead of breaking.
What makes a bike sell faster
Two-wheelers move quickly when the listing is right and sit for months when it is not. None of this costs anything.
Price it against your own town
Check what the same model and year is listed at near you. Bike buyers compare five listings in ten minutes, and the one priced ten per cent over the rest is the one nobody rings.
Photograph it clean, outside
Wash it first — on a bike it genuinely changes the price. Both sides in full, the odometer, the chain, the tyres. A phone in daylight beats anything taken in a garage.
Say what has been replaced
Tyres, chain and sprocket, battery, clutch plates. A buyer is mentally adding up what they will have to spend, and every item you have already done comes off that total.
Answer quickly
Two-wheelers sell locally and buyers are usually looking to buy this week. The listing that gets a call back in an hour beats the one that is two thousand rupees cheaper.
One bike, or a shop full
Both are free right now and both start here. The difference is how much we ask you for and what you get back.
| Selling your own bike | Dealer or showroom | |
|---|---|---|
| What it costs | Free | Free while we are getting started |
| Commission on the sale | None | None |
| What we ask you for | Name, mobile, city, password | The same, plus your shop name and address when you get round to it |
| Who the buyer talks to | You, directly | You, directly |
| Your own page | Yes, with your bike on it | Yes, with all your stock, a QR code and your opening hours |
| Test rides | Buyers ask you and you arrange it | Buyers pick a slot from your opening hours |
| How you are shown to buyers | Marked as a private seller | Marked as a dealer, with your reviews |
What to have to hand
You do not upload any of this to us. It is what a buyer standing next to the bike will ask for, and two-wheeler buyers ask fast.
The registration certificate
The RC, ideally in your own name. Second-hand two-wheelers are notorious for having been transferred on paper and never at the RTO — if that is the situation, say so in the listing.
Insurance, even if it has lapsed
Say which it is and when it expires. A lapsed two-wheeler policy is common and cheap to restart, but a buyer who discovers it on the day assumes worse.
A valid PUC
Pollution certificate with its expiry, for anything petrol. A few hundred rupees, and it removes a reason to knock the price down.
Chassis and engine numbers
Check the numbers stamped on the frame match the RC before you list. On a bike this is the check a careful buyer actually makes, and a mismatch ends the sale on the spot.
The kilometre reading, honestly
Off the odometer. A reading that has clearly been wound back is easier to spot on a bike than on a car, and it costs you every serious buyer.
Six to eight photographs, in daylight
Both sides in full, the odometer, the chain and sprocket, the tyres, and the seat. Scratches and a cracked panel photographed honestly sell faster than the same bike with the damage hidden.
Electric scooter? Say how old the battery is and roughly what range it gives now, not the brochure figure. It is the only question every electric buyer asks, and the listings that answer it get the enquiries.
Your number plate does not go on the internet
Every photograph is checked for a registration plate, and any plate found is blurred before the picture is served to anybody. The blur is written into the file itself, so there is no clean original sitting underneath it.
Detection is not perfect, so you can see what we blurred and fix it: draw a box over a plate we missed, or take one off a badge or a sticker we mistook for one. Every size of the photograph is rebuilt from your correction.
On a two-wheeler the plate is small and often the sharpest thing in the frame, which is exactly why it matters. A registration number is enough to look somebody up, and a listing is a public page for as long as it is up. The photographs are stamped with the site name too, so they cannot be lifted and reposted as somebody else’s stock.
What it costs
Nothing right now, whether you are selling one scooter or thirty bikes. No card, no contract, and no commission when it sells.
It will not stay free forever. When that changes we will say so in advance; the dealer plans are already published so there is no surprise in them.
Questions people ask before listing

My insurance has lapsed. Can I still list it?
What happens to the number plate in my photographs?
Can a shop list twenty bikes?
My bike is old and not worth much. Is it worth listing?
